A Mistaken Orator

About the only one of the Fourth of July
addresses at Woodstock, Conn, which has
attracted much attention is that of Mr..
William Window. whose subject was ''The
Saloon in Politics. and it is probable that
it would not have been accorded more than
a passing notice if it were not for the part
that prohibition is now playing in politics
Mr. Window furnished some figures to
show the extent of the liquor traffic, and
the amount of money absorbed by it. As
these figures appear to have been gathered
from sources not wholly reliable, the
conclusions which he draws from them
cannot be regarded as very valuable. It is
his conclusion that 1--WE are to all intents
and purposes a rum-ruled nation" which
challenges attention. He reaches this con
clusion by assuming that in most of the
cities and towns the drinking saloon is the
central power around which politics re-
wolves, and that it dictates the candidates
and the party policies. To illustrate more
fully what he means he says that the State
of New York sometimes decides national
contest, that the city of New York controls
the State and that the saloon controls the
city.
There is no doubt that the saloon plays an
important part in politics, but it is mis-
take to assume the part is a controlling one.
Tho men who shape the destinies of the
country and who dictate the policies of
parties and their candidates do not get their
ideas, nor do they have their purposes
shaped, in saloons. While it is true that the
saloon eXerts considerable influence in cleo
tons, it must not be forgotten, as Mr.. Win.
dom seemsto have done, that the saloon power
is not all on one side. One party is aided
about as much as the other by it. In the
city of New York, which he cites as an
illustration TO aid his argument, the innu.
ence of the Republican saloons is perhaps
about Us great as that of the Democratic
ones. If it is not it is only necessary to GO
TO Philadelphia to find it greater Taking
the country over il is probable that, so far
as politics is concerned, the Republican
saloons about offset the Democratic ones.
If this be true Mr.. WINDOWS statement that
this is a rum-ruled nation is without sub.
stantial support.
No, the people rule in this country and
they are not influenced in their course by
whisky. There are plenty Of dcmagogues,
ward bummers, henchmen, etc, who make
the saloon their headquarters, and who de.
pend upon it for assistance in electing or de-
feating this or that candidate, but the sa-
loon does not control the politics of the
country

HE WAS CURED BY FAITH.
The Happiest Man in Allegheny-A Re-
markable Case.
From the Chicago Nelcs.

From the Chicago NelUs.
faith cure which is attracting considerable
attention in the Fifth ward, Allegheny, is that
of Mr.. Thomas Bedow, who resides on Beaver
avenue. Some three years ago Mr.. Bedow
began TO lose the proper use of his lower limbs,
and. a physician being called, the ailment was
pronounced paralysis From that time for
ward every remedy was tried to effect
cure, but in vain and last year the attend
Mr.. Bedow ncurable. Mr.. Bedow then went
away from home to consult with other physi-
clans, and TO try advised summer resorts as a
last hope. He returned to the city in the fall,
no better in condition. The paralysis increased
and two weeks ago Mr.. Bedow could only move
about in a painful fashion by grasping hold of
the backs of chairs. 4 few days before his cure
he again consulted DR.. Stewart, who told him
that all that could be done had been done, that
Mr. Bedow was incurable, and not only that,
but that the increasing paralysis would produce
death in the course Of two or at the outside,
three years.
Mr.. Bedow felt much discouraged, and on the
eve or the cure felt that it were useless to
try TO move about any more, and that on the
morrow he would resign himself to the inevita-
bic, and attempt to stand upon the poor, para
lyzed limbs no longer. But on retiring that
night the thought came to him, God can cure
me-" He had just read of the Faith Cure Con
vention at Christ church, and he bowed his head
ana prayed for long time. The next day, in
stead of giving up, as he had intended he sew
eral times made his way across his room by
'chHging to the chairs and furniture and, as he
imagined, with less pain and difficulty than
for several weeks past. He felt encour-
aged, and that night he prayed with all the
earnestness and faith of which he was capable.
He afterward slept soundy until morning, a
thing he had not done for over a year. He
sprang from bed, danced about the floor, Jump
ed into his clothing and ran down stairs, shout
ing for JOY Before stopping his antics he ran
about the yard several times to test bis new
found strength. Since then there has not been
the faintest sign Of a relapse.
Mr.. Bedow, who is a locksmith, went right to
work, and is now the happiest man in Alleghe-
ny. Several people have called on DIR. Stewart,
but the only answer he gives is:
Il pronounced the man incurabe; know he
was fncurable, but now he is well. That is all
there is to il s.
